We work this suburb on the same foothills run as Highbury, Hope Valley and the rest of the north-east, so a quote or a repair never waits for a truck to be free.

Cooling and Heating Choices for the 1970s Housing Stock
This suburb grew through the 1970s and 1980s as housing climbed the Ranges' lower slopes above the old Modbury village. Nearly every house is a single-storey brick-veneer build on a roomy block, with some 1990s and 2000s infill near the Wynn Vale and Surrey Downs edges.
That era shapes the aircon conversation more than anything else:
Veneer walls
Single-storey ceiling spaces
Roomy blocks
Plenty of homes off Ladywood Drive and Milne Road still run units fitted decades ago, well past their efficient life.

Aircon Running Costs and Winter Heating
Adelaide gives you consecutive days over 40 in summer and genuinely cold winters, so the one system has to earn its keep both ways. We quote cooling and heating together, because reverse-cycle heating is a real purchase decision here.

Questions
Modbury Heights Aircon Questions
Can you install ducted aircon in a 1970s brick home on the slopes above central Modbury?
Yes, we do it most weeks, because veneer walls take pipe and cable runs with minimal cutting and the single-storey ceiling spaces in these homes usually fit ducts without major rework.
Does the hillside fall affect where the outdoor unit goes?
It can, because the suburb slopes east to west toward the plain, so we set the outdoor pad level and grade the condensate downhill during the onsite assessment rather than discovering a pooling problem later.
Do the mature trees around the reserves mean more filter cleaning?
They do, because established plantings around reserves like Hargrave and Kestral load filters and coils with dust and leaf litter, so an annual clean pays for itself in running cost and airflow.
Do you offer a pensioner discount?
Yes, we offer a 10% pensioner discount, which suits the older families and mostly owner-occupied homes across the suburb, and it applies alongside our fixed quote before any work starts.
